Title: 15 Inch Wheels
Post by: Numnutz on February 19, 2012, 09:00:42 PM: my beddy is getting close to being finished, it's at the stage now that I can drive it. but...
I need some decent back wheels for her. Has any one got some 15inch HQ stud pattern wheels
they want to sell? jelly beans or modified HQ stockies would be awesome, but anything really,
15x8, 15x9 or 15x10. I've been checking ebay and gum tree every day for over a year now and still no luck.
:'(

I search 15" chev, or 15" hq or holden, sometimes you need to narrow the search to cars,bikes,boats

back space is my biggest problem, I must be looking for an odd offset.

I like them, but the back space is no good.

Post by: Numnutz on March 23, 2012, 06:31:45 AM: I have wheels now, I borrowed the Centerlines from my HQ, they looked good but the rears were not the right offset for my diff
but luckily a pair of 10" came up on ebay and had 275x60's but on them, they fill the guards really well.
just need taller tyres for the front wheels and then I can call that job done.
